My wife says that you can't get lettuce in the Philippines. Bearing in mind that it's usually grown in greenhouses in the UK you'd think it would thrive in a hot country.
Does anyone know if lettuce can be grown out there and any other salad crops for that matter.
thanks
lettuce is available in SM davao. including two cultivars for swanky salads.
I'd imagine they are grown above 2000feet under plastic - they have a big market garden in eden resort..
never mind lettuce
what about vegetarian food
I absolutely adore something vegetarian, in pieces.... medium rare....Originally Posted by joebloggs

lettuce is definitely available in the philippines.. but it might be that you cant get it from wet markets.. but if you shop in grocery shops like SM and the likes.. their supermarkets have lettuce there.. they are actually grown n Baguio where its cold and delivered to manila...
Easting sheep is vegetarian, they are just converted grass!

P.S. Did I mention my eagle last week?
i wonder where ur wife staying here in phil...and she said "dont have lettuce here in pi ?? "
hi there,
im 100 percent sure we can grow lettuce in phil..coz we hv lots in our farm.i came from davao and i hv a farm 80 miles from downtown area which the climate is same as baguio in manila.we hv loads in there and so cheap,even lots are sold along the way going to cagayan via bukidnon.the price just usually 10 pesos per kilo sometimes 5 pesos only..we even hv brocolli and cauliflower grown in there...
Joe's kind of girl............
She's from Leyte. I'm sure you can get it in a big city like Cebu or Manila but she's sure it's not found in her province.
More to the point, can we grow it at our house there?
hi,
if ur place hv a cool climate...i may say yes u can...i dont think it can in warm places...what i know it can on highlands
There r a few varieties of lettuce here, and i can even find it in our wet market. I haven't seen a package of mesclun green tho. Maybe they r available in supermarkets.
Faith makes all things possible.
makes them easy.
hey
May i suggest perhaps we can take pictures of the different lettuce varieties
available in the Philippines.......................:-)
i will endeavour to visit as many hot spots as i can :-)

Shopping in Ayala and Sm in Cebu, i was kind of surprised by the sorry sights that they call lettuce...
Even starving rabbits would have left the limp and bug ridden leaves to decompose peacefully....
hmmm sm cebu?
Yup....hmmm sm cebu?
Quite big too....
Maybe you blinked for too long and missed it...???
Around the reclamation area...?
Near a Big empty building that was intented to be a hotel, but never opened...???
I know it is there, because I used to stop at BO's coffee place quite regularly...
.....we plant lettuce in the highland, particularly in Benguet, its one of the main source of veggies back home.
for sure they have lettuce in leyte coz we even have it in my city, in bacolod.
Different varieties of lettuce are available in big supermarkets like SM, Rustan's and Shopwise. They are quite expensive that's why they are not sold in small groceries and wet markets.
To Rom, yes i have noticed that too but i don't hesistate to call the attention of the salesperson assigned to get me a new stock. They sometimes leave the "not so nice quality" because some buyers prefer the cheaper ones but then again they replace it once new stocks are delivered.
